To Dvur Kralove by train - Transfer Terminal in Dvur Kralove nad Labem
Slouková, Hana ; Palaščák, Michal (referee) ; Foretník, Jan (advisor)
The new transfer terminal in the former royal town of Dvůr Králové nad Labem brings together and connects public transport with individual. The main objective of the proposal is the functional merger of public bus and suburban bus services, pedestrians and the introduction of train connections on the existing siding. At present the town is mainly associated with the ZOO Dvůr Králové and is perceived more as "Dvůr by ZOO" then city itself with history. As a result of popularity of ZOO city loses a substantial part of the tourists. Concept of design is based on lines that lead or guide the passenger to the given points of interest in the city, but the primary remains a clear open space with direct links to the surroundings - the city. The proposal focuses on passenger comfort and easy orientation in space in response to the anticipated development of the structure and infrastructure of the city with the restoration of its identity.

Using repeaters to enhance cellular communication signals
Kubásek, Ondřej ; Kubánek, David (referee) ; Koutný, Martin (advisor)
This thesis examines possibile applications of RF repeaters to improve the mobile networks signal coverage. An overview of various types of repeaters is given, while advantages and disadvantages of particular types are discussed. The questions of antenna isolation and resulting repeater gain settings are solved here as well. The thesis also considers a proposal of repeater system to improve the signal coverage in the trains of the České dráhy, a.s. company. This proposal analyses the questions of signal penetration and propagation in trains, possibilities of implementing repeaters into carriages, system diagnostics and the financial issues. The proposal is supported by the results of a trial measurement taken out in the cooperation among T-Mobile Czech Republic a.s., Vodafone Czech Republic a.s., Telefónica O2 Czech Republic a.s., České dráhy a.s.

Kobyliaková, Tatiana ; Františák, Luboš (referee) ; Foretník, Jan (advisor)
The concept is based on the location of the transport terminal between the bus and train platforms, serving as a portal, gateway to the city or out of the city. It is the place where hundreds of people pass, its character is constantly changing. This dynamics of a small city is also reflected in the shape of the building and the roofing of the platforms. The longitudinal axis of the terminal direction naturally follows a path pointing to the city center.

Train transport
Netolický, Jan ; Prokop, Aleš (referee) ; Řehák, Kamil (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with train transport. Train transport has been with us for many years and is constantly evolving. Many years have passed since the early days when rail vehicles were only used for transporting materials in mines, and today's rail vehicles serve as one of the main means of transport all over the world. The congestion of road transport is contributing to the use and development of train transport and thus to the increased speed and comfort that the carriers are trying to offer us. For this reason, the trains have been divided according to different criteria and the distance of their journey. Freight trains have also been included. Because of the constant increase in speed, more space has been given to high-speed trains, which have been divided into individual high-speed families. This overview of the trains gives us an indication of the direction of future development. As the Czech Republic has an extensive rail network, the paper includes an assessment of future developments in terms of speed increases, electrification and freight transport. As a result of the thesis, a breakdown and overview of current trainsets is presented, from which trends in this sector have been drawn. The thesis also concludes with a critical assessment of future developments in the Czech Republic.

To Dvur Kralove by train - Transfer Terminal in Dvur Kralove nad Labem
Juránek, Marek ; Svojanovský, Viktor (referee) ; Žalmanová, Petra (advisor)
The terminal is becoming a heart of traffic in Dvur Kralove nad Labem. Linking of train and bus transport is inspired by a shape of a “courtyard” - open space, that is surrounded by buildings. This is a stage where acts of transportation, meetings, happiness and worries take place every day. Space has been designed so people don’t only use it for a purpose of transport, but also to enjoy moments of free time. The appearance gives a futuristic impression, however respects city’s history and tries to enrich its surroundings, so it doesn’t become just another place where people like to spend their time. Although trains and buses enter terminal from 21st century, design respects also its history as well as surroundings and use a form and function to promote them. “courtyard” terminal is a place for meetings and goodbyes, where a time flows and journey to adventure begins.

To Dvur Kralove by train - Transfer Terminal in Dvur Kralove nad Labem
Turčanová, Terézia ; Vrbka, Jan (referee) ; Ponešová, Barbora (advisor)
The task of this Bachelor thesis is to create an architectural and urban design of the transfer terminal in Dvur Kralove nad Labem. Therefore in my proposal, I design and integrate the transfer point into an existing built – up area, so it meets the demands of the 21st century passengers, encourages visitors to explore the city and meets daily needs and activities of the local community. Train and bus terminal together with various other services are combined under one roof to create a meeting place. The center of the area is an elevated glazed terminal hall that covers and connects various functions in the separate blocks within it. A distinctive unifying element of the entire terminal is the overlapping roof in the space around the hall and over platforms. The shape of pillars under the roof refers to the character of the industrial zone located nearby and the "lace-shaped" crossing of the ribs under the ceiling creates a specific atmosphere. The shelter over bus stops corresponds with the roof. Simultaneously it fills the interrupted street line on the Ulica 28. rijna street. The project of the area together with its surroundings also includes places for park greenery as well as for living that complement the missing public spaces in this part of town. The scale of objects is chosen with regard to the character of the site and its importance and location within the city, which has about 16 000 inhabitants.

Brno New Train Station and its Public Spaces
Nytrová, Bohdana ; Hybská, Bohumila (referee) ; Sedláček, Michal (advisor)
For almost one hundred years, Brno has been deciding where the place of a new main train station should be. The works have almost started several times, but the various affairs have always postponed it. Two years ago, it was finally decided that „the River option“ would be constructed. So far, only the technological template has been written – e. g. railway bridge or platforms outline. The thesis focuses on the architectural design of the main building, the roof construction above the railways and spaces below the station bridge. In the design, the outlying urban structures are also dealt with. These include the locations of a bus station, taxi services and bike stands. Moreover, the design also mentions the station’s connection to the city networks. The main motive of the design is to put the main train station building into the centre of the city’s attractions – to make it visible. A boulevard’s view is oriented to the St. Peter’s cathedral – a famous Brno’s building. Just as the mentioned cathedral, the station is important for the city and deserves to be seen. A strong arched construction on four pillars serves as a roof over the railways and places where most visitors are expected to be most of the time. The arch also connects the public transport lines and the bus station. Part of a roof shaped like waves around the main hall connects the structure with the riverside nearby.

To Dvur Kralove by train - Transfer Terminal in Dvur Kralove nad Labem
Stibůrková, Nikola ; Svojanovský, Viktor (referee) ; Žalmanová, Petra (advisor)
The project deals with the architectural and urban design of the new transport terminal in Dvůr Králové nad Labem. The terminal has to associate the current bus lines and also the train, which is newly brought to the city by the tracks of the existing siding. The location of the terminal is the prime impetus for the development of the entire adjacent site. The site is influenced by busy transport and the surrounding area, which consists of industrial plants, a supermarket hall and fragments of the original buildings. The proposal works with the current situation and existing barriers but is open to future changes in the territory. The individual buildings are located on the imaginary axis leading from the parcel to the city center and thus direct pedestrian movement in the intended direction. The transport solution follows the current location of the sink leading to the heating plant, to which the bus transport circuit is added. In the circuit´s center, a pleasant space for waiting and safe transfer between lines is created. Trains and buses have a common main building that hides all necessary terminal functions. The terminal is also connected with newly designed public space where the markets and city festivals can be held. This space, amongst other functions of the terminal therefore serves not only passengers but also the inhabitants of the city.
